Good morning Gin! It's a great day to be a non-smoker today isn't it? Can you feel your lungs expand a little more today than they used to? Is your hair long enough that you can smell it? If it is, does it still smell like your shampoo - even if the last time you washed it was yesterday!? Smell your hands - don't they still smell clean and not yucky like smoking made them smell? These are a few of the things I am enjoying today. How about you? I believe in you!

Ginette, Most cravings are brief, but they seem like they will go on forever. Stay strong and stay quit! Here's some tips to help: 1. Delay. Most urges will go away in a few minutes. 2. Distract. Take your mind off smoking. Think of something else to do. Any shift in attention will take away most or all of most people's urges. (e.g. by taking a walk, listening to some music, getting up and doing something else). 3. Deep Breathing: Take two deep breaths. Breathe in slowly & deeply. Then breathe out. Many smokers only breathe deeply when they are smoking. Do you? 4. Drink water. Drink it slowly and keep it in your mouth awhile. Here are some thoughts for you to think about: "It will only last for a little while. I can get through it." "It won't kill me to live through this urge." "My body is repairing itself, and I can handle it." "I will not be controlled by a cigarette." "I don't want to get cancer, a stroke or a heart attack." "If I get through today, I can get through any situation without a cig." "My urges subside and go away. I just have to handle them right now." "I have what it takes to be a non-smoker." "I have made so much progress so far. I don't want to spoil it now." Your fellow members will be around shortly to give you some more tips. Brenna, Bilingual Support Specialist

Having terrible cravings right now...trying to shake them off. It's the morning and so I expect it. I'm going to contact my friend Betty this morning and talk to her. This is Day 4 and I'm hoping it gets a little easier, but I have faith that it will. How are you hanging in there DeQuitters?
